LV Beggars Bag

[LadyIllusion]

Hi peeps,


I have seen THE bag that i want for ever! Please let me know your opinion on it. As i love things that are unusual i am in with this one.

Has anyone ever seen other people with this bag? i know i havent.

Where can i buy/find out the price and whether it is still available.

Sorry i dont know why the pics were downloaded. I shall try again..... B)

Its alright but i wouldnt buy it

I love that bag, too, guccigirl!

But I wish you luck finding it! It's a very limited edition from 2002 and originally retailed for about $4500. Sad, I know.

Chickonspeed - I'd have to be on something strong to spend that much on a bag - no matter how lovely

I am so disappointed because i just this minute read other topics on LV and found the one with my bag! and to my horror they dont make them anymore, so i wont bother calling LV in the WestEnd and Harrods for information and prices.Boo!Hoo!

I'm so sad, i dont usually get this excited about bags - i'm sure i'll find something just as exciting.

funny thing is, i did'nt think much of Louis Vuitton bags b4 because they are so copied, just like the Burberry checked bags. I am now thinking about buying one, any suggestions on something not too common?

these VERHOEVEN bags were great!! shame they were too expensive and therefore rare.. which is a good hting at least.

those were the only LV bag series i ever ever liked, not that I would slave to own 4000+ is too much for a bag...
but i would love to get my hands on one of those

Girls i have seen a smaller version of that bag, but if you want one there is only Two left one in the colour i posted and the other is black i think? These are a bargain in my opinion at $850 compared to the £4500! I cant get one right now because i need to buy an applemac and am about to finish buying two houses! hopefully next time.

Someone was nice enough to post a thread of online shops and this shop was one of them. Hopefully this link should work

Wow, that site has soo many nice bags..have you ever purchased from them before?? I already see 3 bags I want but am scarred of it turning out fake.

 

[leyla m.]

uhm the LVs are second hand on that site thats why they are cheaper i guess ?!

 

[engowalyr]

Very different, I like.

Thank you for the link, GucciGirl.

I really only liked the large Beggar's Bag in that collection. The other two sizes didn't drive me as wild. But thanks anyway!

Leyah.M - Yes they are second hand and in very if not excellent condition, judging by the pictures.


I have not personally bought anything from that website, but am thinking about it. I am put off by tax/duty when items bought outside the Uk arrive into customs. I dont know much about customs, tax and duty on these items, but have read on the website and others based in the US, that its something one has to bear in mind.

the comment about driving you wild is totally something I'd say!

I love those bags, too, and I really do think they're worth the price they retailed for: look at all of the different fabrics used! And how intricate! It's like patchwork/collage ART!! It is so gorge.

If they would've made a messenger-style bag (like the Abbesses, or even Musette tango) in that fashion I would totally want it! But I can only imagine how much that would've cost

You didn't know that that bag was no longer made?

It uses the graffiti print fabric, after all

I know I've seen it on ebay before, though.

Maybe you can try there sometime!
